1t is remarkable fact that in London
q jump should have been made in almost
u single bound from the old fashioned
English inn, with It's dark, lily ventilated,
cramped and uncomfortable Railways and
bedrooms, To such hotel as the Metrop-
ole, with its 500 high and well lighted
rooms, its richly furnished saloons, and
all the other beauties and advantages that
the most advanced modern architecture
can devise. No one can step into this
world renowned establishment without
an expression of wonder and delight.
The building alone, to say nothing of its
perfect arrangements, is now one of the
institutions of London that must be seen
by every American traveller. Naturally
1t has come TO be the center of American
travel in London and a majority of its
guests is often made up of Americans.
No single hotel in Europe begins to ap-
proach the Metropole in popularity with
American travellers Ii is also the favor
ite with the English public Its superb
Whitehall rooms are the best of their kind
in London. IL WAS only few weeks ago
that the Prince Of Wales presided there
at the sevcnty-fourth anniversary Of the
London Orphan asylum, when cOntribu-
tions reaching $25, 600 were handed in.
The Metropole is the princes favorite
hotel, for the reason that lis beauty Of
construction and interior decorations and
its advantages generally are incomparably
superior 10 those of any other hotel in
London. New York World.

The first thing for Il boy or n girl TO re
member in considering war j. that sol
diers must eat IL il generally supposed
that the most important duty Of u soldier
is To fight; but this is a mistake. He
must eat before he can tight, and more
battles have been lost because cOmman.
ders could not feed their armies than be
cause they could not tight the enemy.
The control of the railroads is the object
of every great campaign III modern war.
Whoever holds the railroads can move
troops and ammunition and food 10 the
important point more quickly than the
enemy And everything depends upon
being stronger than your enemy at the
important point. one man is nearly a.
good a. another man, AT least on the
average. Ten thousand men of one nation
are nearly sure TO he worth 10000 of an
other; and certainly in the great American
war, where all the men were of the same
nation. there was little difference in the
fighting quality of the opposing forces.
One side had more dash, the other more
endurance; one perhaps went into battle
more furiously, the other ! should say
held out more stuhbOrnly; but in the end
the men on one side were about as good
for fighting purposes as those ON the
other Whoever had most men, there
fore, was most likely 70 win. But they
must be equipped and fed. To have more
men than you can feed is worse than not
having enough. Nicholas.
